Clear Conversations. Confident Decisions—at Home.
If you’re running a business and raising a family, you’re carrying a lot of responsibility. I create a calm space to sort what’s really getting in the way, agree who decides what, and map simple next steps you can use this week—so family life feels easier for you and your kids, without losing momentum in the business.
Who Is This For?
Founder parents who want a home that feels safe, respectful, and aligned with their values—without scripts, guilt, or guesswork..
What you’ll notice:
Easier conversations; fewer circular debates
Clearer roles and faster repair after tough moments
Agreements you can keep—with each other and with your children
A calmer daily rhythm that supports work and family
How I Help.
This is a strategic, deeply personal partnership—not therapy and not generic tips. I listen carefully, ask precise questions, and keep it practical so you leave each session with one or two agreements you both trust.
What we cover (tailored to you):
Untangling sticky moments (bedtime, mornings, transitions)
Balancing needs when everyone’s tired or overloaded
Turning big feelings into teachable moments
Breaking unhelpful patterns without blame
Aligning parenting values and expectations as partners
Parenting with PEACE®
To help founders move from reactive parenting to intentional leadership at home, I developed the PEACE Method™ — a simple, repeatable framework that supports calm, confident decision-making even in high-stress parenting moments that combines the best of everything I’ve learned in the past 10+ years.
Whether you're navigating toddler meltdowns, sibling conflict, or your own emotional triggers, this method gives you a step-by-step process to stay grounded, respond with empathy, and lead your family in a way that aligns with your values — not your autopilot reactions.
✔️ Pause before reacting, so you don’t parent on autopilot
✔️ Empathise with your child’s experience, so you truly understand their needs
✔️ Assess the root of the behaviour, so you solve the problem, not just the symptom
✔️ Create collaborative solutions, so your child builds emotional intelligence and life skills
✔️ Evaluate what’s working, so you can grow with confidence
Informed by collaborative problem-solving (CPS), ACT, and attachment science—translated into everyday family life.
